The principal at Hardin Valley Academy is placed on administrative leave with pay.
Knox County Schools Superintendent Dr. Jon Rysewyk appointed Michael Reynolds as the interim principal. He retired from Central High School in 2018.
Our news partner WVLT News reached out to KCS to find out if the action was due to a previous incident regarding a gas valve being intentionally left on by a contracted janitor and KCS says that there was an internal review of the incident.
Reynolds will start at HVA on Monday.
